Alt account #4 because i can!

Such a majestic thing.

The Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor is a single-seat, twin-engine fifth-generation supermaneuverable fighter aircraft that uses stealth technology. It was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but has additional capabilities that include ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence roles. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics is the prime contractor and is responsible for the majority of the airframe, weapon systems and final assembly of the F-22. Program partner Boeing Defense, Space & Security provides the wings, aft fuselage, avionics integration, and training systems.

Just, beautiful.

Yes, but can it establish Space Superiority?

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

Talking about Sweden is an ultrabannable offense.

Too bad being completely and utterly wrong isn't a bannable offense.

Able being of doing everything mean aircraft is good at nothing.

F-22 is primary air superiority aircraft and is lack capability in other areas.

13.72 billion years in the making.

On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

I've only seen it fly once in an airshow. Pulled a Pugachev's Cobra and I was blown away. It really stinks that the opportunity to watch them fly is so rare, despite the fact that I attend tons of airshows. Meeting #4 of the Thunderbirds was nice, too.

So is this thread about discussing awesome planes? Because, little did the Flood know, WinyPit was not only an Astronomy nerd, he was also an Aviation nerd.

My fiancee has a cousin that use to fly those.


In fact he was the pilot that fly some stunts for the first transformer movie.



He's an astronaut now.




He crushed my hand with his astronaut handshake.

It was cool.
